My LLMD wants me to get a new test for Lyme. I apologize I do not have the details in front of me, but I believe the measurement of Cytokines wae important. I have tested with Igenex a couple of months ago, but I believe this is a different lab. I will follow up soon

It is called My Lyme by NeuroScience labs and it is very accurate. There is a thread running on this. They will be presenting at ILADS and at the trade show.

Sounds promising!! [Smile]

I can't believe they named it "My Lyme." ... not a very professional name!!

Does anyone know JUST HOW accurate this test is? I mean can Neuroscience really claim it is 90% or some such number accurate??

Or is it merely another tool, something that gives a likely indication? thanks, JL

My LLND just ordered this test and it's $845 for those of you who are wondering. I hoping my insurance will cover 80% of the cost.
